Why Hypnotherapy?
Because your mind is a powerful tool
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, leaving us stuck or out of balance. Hypnotherapy offers a gentle, effective and often rapid way to create positive change, by working with the natural abilities of your mind.
Hypnotherapy uses focused attention and guided techniques to help you access the resources of your subconscious mind. This process can make it easier to let go of unhelpful patterns and develop new, healthier ways of thinking and behaving. Far from losing control, you remain fully aware and in charge throughout the session.
Modern solution-focused hypnotherapy is based on scientific research and can be applied to a wide range of issues, including stress, anxiety, pain management, confidence, and performance. Many people describe the experience of hypnotherapy as similar to being “in the zone” or in a creative flow – calm, focused, and deeply restorative.
How hyphotherapy works
Harness the strength of the most powerful tool you own – your mind
Your imagination is active every day, shaping your thoughts, feelings, and behaviour, often without you realising it. Worry, for example, is one way your imagination can work against you. Hypnotherapy helps you regain control over these automatic patterns, training your brain to respond in ways that are more beneficial and aligned with your goals.
Rather than relying on “positive thinking”, our work together focuses on practical, solution-focused techniques that create lasting change. You’ll learn how to use your mind more effectively, building resilience and confidence, and supporting long-term wellbeing.
What to expect
Collaborative, safe, and tailored to you
At its best, hypnotherapy is a collaborative process – it’s not about giving up control. You remain aware of what’s happening at all times and can return to a normal state whenever you choose. The experience is typically calming and enjoyable.
Sessions may include techniques such as guided visualisation, solution-focused conversation, and evidence-based approaches including neuro-linguistic programming, mindfulness strategies, autogenic metaphors and cognitive reframing. Together, we work towards the outcomes you want, at a pace that feels right for you.
Please note: hypnotherapy is overall safe for most people. However, it is generally not recommended for individuals with psychosis or certain personality disorders. If you are unsure, please check with your healthcare provider before starting.
